Fish Out of Water film

More than 600,000 U.S. soldiers returning home from Iraq and Afghanistan suffer from traumatic brain injuries, including psychological ailments such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and depression. Sun Valley Adaptive Sports helps these “Wounded Warriors” recover by hosting nature trips to beautiful Idaho, where veterans learn the competitive yet meditative sport of fly fishing and find camaraderie and understanding from fellow soldiers. See the powerful impact the trip has on six veterans in this emotional film about change, rehabilitation, and the struggle to feel “normal” again.

No Sports Allowed Vol.1

I was recently sent a copy of No Sports Allowed. I had never heard of this film or the guys producing this film, so I had no expectations, unlike my expectations on some of the bigger names putting out fly fishing films. One thing I have seen is, if you want to get anyone’s attention you need to put something out there that is different, or do it better than anyone one else.

No Sports Allowed shows you what some guides in Idaho like to do on their day off, hang out with friends and fish. This film is smack full of fish porn, good music and camaraderie of friends and family enjoying what they love best, fly fishing.

I really enjoyed how they took you on each adventure with them and made you feel like you were part of the adventure. The characters along with all the fish footage really ties this film together. The places they could get those skiffs into really made me want to get one and try some adventures of my own.

This was a fun film to watch and I will be sharing it with my buddies. If you want to pick a copy up for yourself you can get them at No Sports Allowed.

I happened to come across this video on youtube. It is done by a couple of friends of mine from right here in Maine. I think this is probably the best video I have seen on Jeremy’s site, edited by Greg Bostater, great footage and nice song. This also has video of Greg’s monster bone fish. Nice work guys!

This is a new fly fishing film, by Gray Ghost Production, that is coming out in February. They did the film The One, that came out last year.   This new film  has some footage of my two boy on it Tait and Jax.Check out the trailer,looks like a lot of great footage.

I have had the opportunity to guide for Weatherby’s and also take my family there. It has become a tradition in the spring for my wife and I to get away  and stay there for the weekend and fish. The food and lodging is top notch. Here is a video they have recently release of some thing you can do in the fall.
